MadeYouReset Technical Details - How (and Why) It Works?

MadeYouReset Technical Details

MadeYouReset makes an HTTP/2 server reset a stream itself, using primitives such as a zero-increment window update or a frame sent after the client closed the stream. The reset frees the concurrency slot at once while backend work continues, so an attacker beats the concurrent-stream limit and floods a server with unbounded in-flight requests.
